New mystery thriller series ‘Wayward Pines’ has acquired another cast member. The sexy Shannyn Sossamon -below (‘Mistresses’) has joined the cast of the new M. Night Shyamalan project based on the novel by author Blake Crouch. Sossamon will play the wife of Matt Dillon’s character Ethan as he heads to ‘Wayward Pines’ to track down two missing federal agents. The new show will be split into a ten episode series that will also star Carla Gugino (‘Sucker Punch’), Terence Howard (‘Crash’), Toby Jones (‘Berberian Sound Studio’) and Melissa Leo (‘Red State’) also star in the new series. ‘Wayward Pines’ will air sometime next year and was adapted by writer Chad Hodge.
“Ethan Burke (Dillon) is a Secret Service agent who arrives in the bucolic town of Wayward Pines, Id., on a mission to find two missing federal agents. But instead of answers, Ethan’s investigation only turns up more questions. Each step closer to the truth takes Ethan further from the life he knew, from the husband and father he was, until he must face the terrifying reality that he may never get out of Wayward Pines alive.”
